Tarpon Springs · Pinellas County · Retail
This is the Tarpon Springs page for emergency roof tarping. The short version: you want someone to get a tarp on today before more water comes in, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.
Get a written quoteThe hurricane deductible is a percentage of dwelling coverage, not a flat amount, so a coastal claim needs to clear a much higher bar than an inland wind claim. A sealed roof deck — peel-and-stick underlayment over every seam — earns secondary water resistance credit on the wind mitigation form and is worth asking for by name. Real estate activity drives a lot of the roofing here — pre-listing inspections, buyer credits, and insurance-driven replacements right after closing.
What it costs in Tarpon Springs: a professional tarp install is a few hundred dollars and is nearly always reimbursable under a storm claim as mitigation — keep the receipt.

How it works
Weeks, not months. Sun degrades the plastic and wind works the fasteners loose. It buys time for a proper repair or claim, not a season.
You can, but people get hurt on wet roofs every storm season, and a badly nailed tarp creates new leaks. If it's a single-story with a walkable pitch and the weather's cleared, it's doable; otherwise let a crew do it.
